Undergraduate research is central to the goals and priorities of the academic program at Trinity University. During the 10-week Summer Program, students work on research projects full-time under the close mentorship Trinity faculty. These research experiences allow students to develop a more complete picture of life in research and academia.
In 2009, over 100 students from Trinity and institutions across the country participated in the Summer Research Program. In most cases, students receive a stipend and free housing. Some students also receive one tuition credit free of charge.
The summer research program culminates in a day-long conference where students present their research results in oral or poster presentations.
The 2010 Sumer Research Program will begin on Monday, May 24. Students residing on campus may move into the residence hall between noon and 5 on May 23. The program will end on Friday, July 30. Dormitories will close on Saturday, July 31. All events and deadlines will be posted to the tuResearch calendar.
Trinity is an enhanced institutional member of the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR), allowing Trinity faculty to join CUR as individual members for free.
Claudia Scholz is Trinity's Coordinator of Research Programs. See other research support personnel here.
